June is National Safety Month. This is a great time of the year to review safety protocol and plans as they pertain to the how to be safe on the jobsite and on the road.

One of the best ways to prepare for a life-threatening situation is to take a First Aid/CPR/AED class. This training is available monthly with FREE CPR/AED Certification Scholarships available for those that meet qualifications.

Various training is also available for specific industries. Now is a great opportunity to get new employees or in-house personnel trained on Fall Protection, Respiratory Protection, and more. Nebraska Department of Labor (NDOL) provides grant funding for training that often covers the cost of a course.

“The peace of mind that comes with knowing your team is up to date on life-saving skills is invaluable,” says Brian York, Safety Services Manager, Nebraska Safety Council. “Having the knowledge to know how to act should an emergency arise is empowering. We provide industry-specific training, so we work with you to provide a solution that is customized to your work environment.”
